The latest Met Office forecast for Saturday to Monday seems very
pessimistic, suggesting dull wet conditions (if not as bad as earlier
this week). This seems at odds with the weather charts, which shows
some fronts but also high pressure (1020+ mb). My own guess from that
would just be high or medium level cloud, and bright.

So is the met office forecast likely to be realistic and would it be
better to schedule outdoor activities for Friday or Tuesday (rather
than Sat-Mon) if possible?

Thanks,
Nick

Seeing as the plotters thickened after Thursday, it is not unlikely
that the MetO has seen the error of its ways and started looking at my
prognostications.

You should have got on the boat with Rodney, you plonker.

Well the alternative is to follow the BBC line of reasoning and end up
in perdition or wherever hacks go to die once they realise there is
life after Blue Peter.

The swell forecast is good, and Monday might even be warm enough for
me.

Stifling here in Stoke. Of course it has plenty of time to dampen
down. But I have to admit to it being rather nice if you like that
sort of thing.
